To Be Is Something Or To Be Not Is Something Else, Choices And Options Are Always Ahead Of You. Poem by MOHAMMAD SKATI

Life has a lot of choices
And options, but
Optional choices are not compulsory
Simply because we are
In front of
A lot of stumbling-blocks,
Ups and downs are ahead and
Aback, but
They depend on
What's going around,
The alpha and the omega
Of life depend on
Our ways
Here and there,
From our heads
To our toes,
We try to be or
To be not,
Winners or losers,
We keep looking for
A better life, but
It depends,
Time and again
We don't win
Simply because
That's the way
Around us,
To get out of our hands
Means not to be at all,
In the long run
To sit on the fence
Means to give up,
To take advantage of
This life around us
Means to try to taste
Life bitterly,
The sound and the wicked
Try to be or
To be not,
Confusions and puzzlement
Are sometimes better choices or
Options, but
They depend on us totally,
At last try to be or
To be not
Simply because choices and
Options are here and
They are there
Ahead of us.
